Very happy to have my first decent off-road bike and my first Specialized. As with Cannondale and BMC it’s no ordinary bike manufacturer, they build machines with personality and soul. The Status 140 is already a cult item, referred to as “the most fun you can have on two wheels” in one review. I feel very lucky to have this beauty parked in my garage.
Oh, I picked it up from a shop on the Lake District so I grabbed the mandatory selfie before I drove home.
